Welcome to Nailsea URC
Dear Friends
Dear Friends,
I would like to introduce you to a dear friend called John who attended my previous church. He discovered in his thirties that he was going blind and when I got to know him when he was heading towards seventy, he had a trained guide dog to accompany him. When that dog got to the age of twelve, he was retired and went to live with someone else and John got a new dog.
I used to accompany him on his initial walks with the dog, and it was fascinating to see how the two worked together, the dog could see obstacles but was reliant on John to know approximately where they were and where they wanted to go. He told me stories about the time when the dog saved his life. It wouldn’t go forward on one regular walk and John got angry; however, then he could feel this large vehicle moving past him very close and he realised that the dog had seen this issue, that which had been unoccupied land was now being built on. It reminded me a little of Balaam’s adventure with his donkey recorded in Numbers 22 v 21-35!

Becoming a Member of Nailsea URC
What's it all about?
Church Membership is the way in which Christians who have made their home in the local church are encouraged to express their commitment to that congregation of God’s people.
Who are they?
Well Church Members are not Super-Christians, just ordinary people who meet regularly to try and make sure that the continued life and witness of the church is in line with how God wants it to be. You can still be effective within the life of the church without being a member, but only members have a vote at Church Meeting, and are therefore the people who, as a body, make decisions.
